Avocado from seeds |
Avocado, one of the fruits that is costly and healthy and we
had it from an organic grown farm. Hardly do I grow these fruits or vegetables
with my past experiences with cherries and chikoo plants, but this time as I
gave it a try , the Avocado plant has grown so fast and quite tall.
Planting from seeds is tricky and I keep getting emails on
some tricks, for growing from seeds as many seeds just do not sprout!
Tricks What I did for growing Avocado-
1) I collected the seed from a healthy avocado fruit,
(though the one was refrigerated for fifteen days before we had it, but I guess
it was of strong genes and I got lucky.
2) After removing the pulp of fruit , very carefully not
damaging the seed at all.
3) I washed the seed of Avocado, almost like a ball, just a
bit oval shaped.
4) I let it dry in sun for a few hours.

5) The outer layer, I peeled off slowly. Delicately remove
the outer skin of the seed. Take utmost care not to damage the seed inside as
it is softer after removing the covering skin shell.

6) Take a small pot, four inches wide. This helps to
concentrate care and watering during beginning years of your new avocado plant.
7) partial sunlight , not too much and not too little, dark
places must be avoided as rats will feast upon the seed.
8) Fifteen days to three weeks and your new plant will come
up.

Avocado plant grows very fast. The plant had a tall stem and then leaves came up on this. The stem is strong and grown to three feet with huge leaves now and maybe time to repot it to a bigger home.
